Interestingly enough, the government involved norwegian philosophers
It makes me wonder what it'd be like if, as a nation, our upper house of government were replaced with a long-standing group of politically independent philosophers and other "wise people" (here in the UK there is a little of this, as the House of Lords has 26 "Lords Spiritual" who are all Church of England bishops - something more secular but in a similar spirit would also be nice).
